As the Philharmonic performs Gustav Mahler’sSymphony No. 1 in a matinee this afternoon (and again tomorrow evening), here’s a peek at the composer’s own score, which he used for the U.S. premiere in 1909, during his brief tenure as Philharmonic Music Director. (View the full score here.)
It has some additional markings from another Philharmonic Music Director. Can you guess who?
